I installed checkinstall 1.6.2 on CentOS 5.4 VM (VMWare Server on
WinXP). After getting the dependencies installed it compiled with no
errors. But when I run it in its own source directory, I keep getting an
error that I can't track down. The message is:
install: cannot change ownership of '/usr/local/lib/installwatch.so': No
such file or directory.
But not only does the file exist, it has the correct permissions and
creation time. I am running this as root. I did change the permissions
on both make and install to 0755, but that did not help. The command
line is:
checkinstall -R --install=no
Any suggestions?
